Gas is not an issue...
both used car and matic
If all other parameters are equal, sa Accord na ako. It is a class above Civic.
never had an accord, so i'll go for it. it's better than the civic i suppose
Thanks pero I wonder bakit mas mahal ang civic sa accord?
a 1996 civic is about 200k- 230k while an accord of the same year
is less.![]()
+1. The bigger the car, the more expensive the parts.
Only go for the Accord if the transmission is in good condition and it doesn't have any kalampag issues. Otherwise, go for the Civic.
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...
Also boils down to maintenance and the current condition as well as service history of the car. Like Niky said masmahal Accord in terms of parts and maintenance so hopefully hindi siya nalaspag compared sa Civics of the same year.
Why did you think of the Accord in the first place? There must be a reason why you considered it too.
Go for the Accord (Gen 5). It's way, way better than the EK.
I also considered the EK and the Accord when I was in the market for a 2nd hand coding car. Test-drove both, and the Accord came out way ahead (performance, exterior looks and comfort). Tutal sabi mo naman, FC is not an issue.
Yun nga lang, as others have said, parts are a little bit more expensive. Pati registration (mid-sized cars kasi naglalaro sa 6k and reg. fee, compared to ~2.3k for compacts).
kung brand new and maintenance and gas is not an issue, go for the accord. But if you are buying 2nd hand, go for the civic.
kung nasa province ka mahihirapan ka nga humanap ng parts ng accord. kung dito ka naman based sa metro manila, wala problema. hindi naman ganood kamahal parts except kung sa casa ka bibili. 5th gen is ***y. IMHO
Congrats! now may murang kuhanan ng parts, hanapin mo si orly ng carpower sa taft lapit sa lianas near edsa. may mga ex-casa mechanic na pwede rin mag home service. kung may macanvass ka na mas murang source ng parts, post it here na lang or sa accord thread. since 2nd hand car, mag allot ka ng allowance para sa mga papalitan or repair. At wag mag reklamo sa consumption sa city drive. Naka acoord ka naman eh.![]()
